2018-19 Wigan Athletic Supporter Questionnaire

As part of Wigan Athletic's commitment to improving the match day experience it is important that we understand who our supporters are and what their needs are.

In order for us to achieve this we are looking for your support by taking five minutes to complete the attached questionnaire.

Understanding the diversity of supporters allows us to implement specific programmes in order to provide appropriate services for existing supporters, address any under-represented groups within our supporter base, and attract new supporters in the future.

Wigan Athletic collects this information for the sole purpose of monitoring the effectiveness of our policies, which are in place to ensure that the club is welcoming to all and to assist us in meeting our equality and diversity commitments. Any information you do provide will not be used for any other purpose.

We will not pass any of the information provided in this questionnaire to any third party. As a club participating in the Premier League Equality Standard, we may share statistical results of the equality and diversity monitoring with the Premier League. This will always be in collated form and this form and your answers or personal data will never be shared.

Any responses or personal information provided will be processed in line with data protection legislation. By voluntarily completing and returning this form to us, you confirm that you consent to the processing of your data as set out above. If you have any questions, please contact feedback@wiganathletic.com

The information provided on this form will be treated as confidential. You are not required to provide your name and completion of this form is not compulsory.

At the end of this questionnaire you will be re-directed to a separate and optional form to enter your client code to be in with the chance of winning a Wigan Athletic shirt signed by the first team squad, 2x away match tickets for one of our remaining away fixtures in 2018-19 and a training ground experience at the Wigan Athletic Training Centre in Euxton.

Under the Equality Act 2010, a person is considered to have a disability ‘if they have a physical or mental impairment, and the impairment has a substantial and long-term adverse effect on his or her ability to carry out normal day-to-day activities.’ ‘Substantial’ is defined by the Act as ‘more than minor or trivial’. An impairment is considered to have a long-term effect if:

·        It has lasted for at least 12 months

·        It is likely to last for at least 12 months
or

·        It is likely to last for the rest of the person’s life.

Normal day-to-day activities are not defined in the Act, but in general they are things people do on a regular or daily basis, for example eating, washing, walking, reading, writing or having a conversation. Only serious visual impairments are covered (for example) and do not include those corrected by the use of prescription lenses.
